"This opening… is not just for the members of the Evernight Council!"
The moment those words reverberated throughout the Abyssal Plains, an eerie silence reigned over the entire Abyssal Plains, but it didn't last for the next moment, the Plains erupted!
"What—?!"
"Did I hear the opening this time is not just for the Evernight Council?!"
"Are they for real?!"
"Then who are they referring to?!"
But the Protector Envoy did not allow the chaos to grow as the lantern's eye flashed once, and silence returned instantly, violently.
The Envoy declared the incomprehensible.
"This cycle, the Evernight Sanctuary opens…for an Outsider."
Back at the Duskmire Vault, Eva and Ace's expressions hardened when they heard the Protector Envoy's words, because this didn't seem like just a mistake or a special privilege. It was more like the start of a scheme as Ace's thievish instinct suddenly erupted with sharpness.
Even the Dread Duchess seemed astonished as her eyes narrowed dangerously.
